Hello Charlotte Baker, nice to meet you. How can I assist you with your legal issue today?
I was forced to vacate my rent controlled apartment there was no fault or just cause, by my landlord and his property managment. We were intimidated, harrassed, locked out of the lahndry room, threatend eviction, my property was removed from my balcony, and we were contantly told to get out. We could not take the abuse anylonger and turned over our keys. We have been homeless ever since. The landlord sold the property for over * million dollars and we are left devistated, homless, and suffering depression anxiety,
